Abstract Novel polyaminophenols, poly‐2‐[3‐thienylmethylene]aminophenol (P‐2,3‐TP), poly‐3‐[3‐thienylmethylene]aminophenol (P‐3,3‐TP) and poly‐4‐[3‐thienylmethylene]amino phenol (P‐4,3‐TP), were synthesized by oxidative polycondensation reaction. Metal complexes of P‐2,3‐TP were also obtained. The structures of synthesized compounds were confirmed by FT‐IR, UV‐vis, 1 H NMR, and 13 C NMR techniques. The characterization was made by TG‐DTA, DSC, and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analyses in addition to solubility tests. Electrical conductivities of polymers were measured by four‐point probe technique. Fluorescence measurements were carried out in various solutions and optimum concentrations and maximal intensities were determined. The new synthesized polyaminophenols are good candidates for electronic, opto‐electronic, and photovoltaic applications due to polyconjugated structures. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
